hello...
new to this but thought i'd give it a try...Does anyone want a pair of Armada ARV's in 175? They were prototype skis for 03/04 season that i got from Julien L Reigner. I've used them about a week but they are in good condition. Mounted once with Rossignol Pro FKX 180 bindings. They were trying different topsheets on these so one is like grip tape and the other is soft touch. They ski fine though. Also, some slight cosmetic damage on the sidewalls. I dont think there are many of these in the UK...so...i'm open to offers...sold without bindings.

and Phil...MAMMOTH BABY!

What's wrong with international shipping? It just costs more. Include it in what they pay you. I don't think there are too many Brits on here, though there are a few. Seriously though, those are odd skis... if anybody wants to be totally unique on the hill, here's your chance.

what is all the hype with the armada skis anyways?? I demoed a pair like a month ago and they ski fine but they are no where near as durable as my rossi scratchs. These new companies seem to be way to overrated. Its obvious atleast so far that these new companies just cant compete with the big dogs like rossi or salomon because they dont have the cash to compete.

^Are you aware that you have no idea what you're talking about? The THC is the best thing I've used for a balance between light weight, durability and great pop. I have lots of wood core skis, and they're stable, but THC is great stuff. Meanwhile, that guy is wrong by all accounts... 4frnt are a new company that makes quality skis. Everyone who's used them that I know of has had nothing but good things to say about them. Armadas seem to be getting better and better.

I heard next years Armadas are even better than the Scratches. From a 4-Frnt rep!
